WHEN Cleveland's eulogists undertake
to make out an exceptionally brilliant
record for his administration they I'M
dertake more than they can accomplish.
The cumming up Of the whole case can
be done In a nutshell. Judged by the
acts Of the past two years the country
can not but see these things -Iirover
Cleveland has NOT harmpniZrd HE own
parry: he Inns not swHyed his party on
the question OF fiscal or Ciyll service re-
form; he has not induced congress to re-
duoe the revenues; he has not impressed
upon congress his tariff policy or his sill
yer policy, If he has any: he has not
marked out any programme for his
D rty; he has not reduced the cost Of
running the government; he has not i'm
proved the character of the pubic ser.
vice; no better men are In subordinate
positions than occupied these positions
under Arthur. or Garfield, or Grant; the
government Is In no sense more eff
ciently administered than before he
the most ipefficiently administered Of
any that this country has known since
1860. His commendatOry acts have all
been noted and they sre of n very uncor-
sequential character. The one thing
that he has done is to keep the machine
running rs nearly as possible in repub-
lican groove, and in this he has only
been partially successful. He has shown
himsels an honest, dull man OF stubborn,
impassiye character and decidedly OF
the common order. Under this Impair
tisl judgment of his administration the
assertion that. "he has impressed his
purposes upon all his subordinates and
demanded compliance with the larger
features of his policy" is SIMPLY ridicu-
lous and is so accepted by many demo-
Gratis in high places.

Cardinal TAsCHEREAU is modifying his
position on Knights Of Labor matters
and in the recent utterances of his semi
official paper at Montreal, L'Electeur,
there is every reason to conclude that
he is gracefully preparing to back
down and out of his old position, on his
return from Rome. L'Electeur says.
Cardinal Taschereau did not condemn
the Knights of Labor upon his own mo-
ton, but simply communicated to his
flock the instructions he had received
from Rome. His eminence is now
said to be IN full accord with Cardinal
Gibbons in this matter.

The Chicago democracy are endeavOr-
ing to reform the party. They are not
proud OF it as now constituted. Their
sense OF self-respect revOlts against the
party being run on the "sole ground of
personal allegiance to a man who con-
siders himself greater than the party"
The demand is for free expression OF
democratic sentiment at the primaries
and the dethrOnement of the bride
takers, bosses and boodlers. Let the
Chicago democracy carry out these re-
form ideas and the party will need to be
introduced to itself. 1t certainly will
not be recognized in its new cloths. 1t
will be great day for Cook county
when these reforms are inaugursted.

ILLINOIS is considering very seriously
the question of furnishing free text
books to the children in the public
schools. In order to do this at least cost
to the state, and at the same time keep
convicts employed without bringing
them into competition with free labor, IL
Ia proposed by her legislature to set the
cOnvicts at work printing and binding
the school books for free distribution.
FMS plan will certainly have the merit
Of originality. As to furnishing free text
books it is only question Of time when
all text books for public schools will be
furnished by the state. Compulsory
education will come as an adjunct Of
this, and then and not till then will the
state be so placed as to successfully
carry on her educational work. lntelli-
gence is the only substantial basis for
responsible representative government.

reckoning a. the mao who thinks New
Orleans or Florida as favorable climate
for cOnsumptives to winter in as is that
Of San Antonio or southern Texas. In
Chicago about fifteen per cent. OF all
deaths are from pneumonia, bronchitis,
lung difficulties. or some affection OF the
respiratory organs. 10 New Orleans the
death rate from these causes Is about six
per cent. OF the total deaths, and In this
city about one half that. There Is no

more favorable TO the weak lunged deni-
zens of our blizzard stricken north than
any other region 10 the United States.

PrrERsBuRa, August 25, 1887.
Ex-Governor Cameron's criticisms OF
the Republican Committees address
and Of General MahoHc's sclf-assumed
authority, as published in the Dispatch
this morning, attracted decidedly more
attention here than did the committees
address itself. His comments upon
the autocratic power of the General
ms chairman Of the Republican Central
Committee and the thwarting of the
will Of the people, as has SO often
been manifested in the conventions
OF the party, express truth which can
not be denied. 1t has been intimated
to-day that General Malone or his
friends will in some way reply to Gov
ernor Cameron's criticisms, but 1T Is
probable they will be allowed to pass
nnnoticed officially. A reply from
General Malone would be regarded in
the light of challenge by Governor
Cameron, and the public would proba-
bly, then learn something of interest
that il does not now know.
II may be here stated that Governor
Cameron has received many letters
from prominent and influential Re-
publicaps in different portions of the
State urging some action looking TO an
expression Of the views of the indie
pendent Republicans, and, as intimated
by the Ex-Governor III his interview,
paper will probably be issued during
the canvass giving expression to Their
views. Certain IL is that the hide
pendepts will endeavor TO make their
influence felt in the county conventions
to be held.
sESTENCE or A NEGRO AssATLANT.
The mayor this morning announced
his decision in the case of the negro
Richard Ridley, who was tried yester-
day for an assault committed upon
Mrs. DeJarnette. He imposed a fine
of $50 and sentenced Ridley to eight
months imprisonment IN jail. The
sentence is received with satisfaction,
and thus ends case which threatened
serious consequences and ut the time
looked as though it might result in an
armed collision of the races.
